I've read some comments over at www.halflife2.net -0 everyone seems blown away by it. One guy said he is enjoying it MUCH better than Half Life 2 itself. |

SPOILER ALERT
I've played to the point where you have done whatever you do to the core, and have gone down the elevator, and are heading to a train out of the citadel. In the opening, when you look up and see the big swirling cloud with the orange glow in the sky - WOW damn good graphics there. |

Well...we had a power outage last night just as I was cranking up HL2:E1. Had numerous video problems when the power came back...installing the latest ATI drivers fixed that.
Anyway...I only had a chance to look at it for around 10 minutes. I'm on the way to where Cuni just described. If it wasn't 1:00 in the morning...I would have more to tell.
Graphics are gorgeous...and yes, they all survived (of course they did, or we wouldn't be playing this). But how that happened, I won't tell.
Spoiler Alert
Dog is back ... |

ew.... A LITTLE TOO MUCH INFORMATION
Anyway, I'm trying to get it at EB so that I could use my EB Gift Card, but everyone's all out.
Apparently, either someone's stealing, they under-ordered, or everyone really loves this so much, that people will go to other towns to get it.
Maybe a mix of them..... |
